AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

When life feels engulfed in darkness and moments of light seem fleeting, maintaining enthusiasm becomes incredibly challenging. Even chanting “Maa” feels mechanical. How can one navigate through this difficult time when the mind feels like a dry desert? 🏜️

We should remember then that the Divine is all-powerful and all merciful and take refuge in Him, knowing that it is only His Love that can fulfil us. Human love almost always ends in bitterness because most human beings are governed by the ego and desires. As long as this is the case, life will remain miserable. To turn to the Divine, to find the Divine, is the only truth worth living for. Here is a letter of Sri Aurobindo showing us the way.

‘It is the lesson of life that always in this world everything fails a man — only the Divine does not fail him, if he turns entirely to the Divine. It is not because there is something bad in you that blows fall on you — blows fall on all human beings because they are full of desire for things that cannot last, and they lose them or, even if they get them, it brings disappointment and cannot satisfy them. To turn to the Divine is the only truth in life.’

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok da, Beggining with your training in psychology to walking in the path of The Mother today, what is your estimate of psycho spiritual condition of humans at large, I don’t even mean spiritual or yogic but atleast of what you’d consider a healthy mind and spirit. How much percentage of humanity do actually fit the bar of being healthy souls? I was curious to ask this question cos I was reading a bit of these psychiatric studies and the characteristics which describe those who are supposedly to be found only in psychiatric wards doesn’t seem to be too far away from your everyday “normal” human beings whom we meet all around and i felt this to be a bit scary. If not a supramental life, what you’d consider atleast of the essentials required of living a healthy life mentally and emotionally?

Let us leave the supramental, spiritual and psychic apart for a moment. Nor can we arrive at the real problem if we just think in terms of numbers and case studies.

1. Has there been an increase of psychiatric as well as other illnesses?

Most probably yes. The reason is manifold. Science with its expansion of medication has lowered the natural resistance as far as physical conditions go. Labelling is another problem as far as psychiatric illnesses go. Labelling isolates a person and then instead of treating him as an organic whole we treat symptoms. There is also…

I feel now that I was never unhappy. Just disillusioned with the world around me after a certain point in life. Needed to find the truth. About people. Reality of time. Other things. Work. Things told/said to me vs my own experience. 🌱🌟 […]

The purpose is inbuilt within us as the tree is held back within the seed. So too the soul within is the seed within and its purpose is to realise, express and thereby fulfil the Divine Possibility or the Divine Purpose within it. It happens through a process of unfolding across lives. As we draw closer to the soul the more we feel conscious of …
